Why not just put the money into Mistral?

Because they are not, as Silicon Valley/American thinking would have it, trying to "win" some AI Arms Race measured in stock market valuations.

This is so European governments & their civil service, educational institutions, the EU itself has an AI untainted by either American or Chinese values, and also independent of either of them.

But Mistral could do all that, with a far lower chance of pissing away the money...
